Primenergy, L.L.C. Solids Gasification & Energy Generation
Primenergy & Alternative, Renewable Energy Market • The Broad Market of Renewable Energy • Wind, Solar or Biomass • Regulatory Driven • Deregulation • Environmental • Restrictions on Land Application • Reduction in Carbon Dioxide from Fossil Fuel • Economically Driven by Energy Pricing • Biomass • Definition • Any plant derived organic matter available on a renewable basis, including dedicated energy crops and trees, agricultural food and feed crops, agricultural crop wastes and residues, wood wastes and residues, aquatic plants, animal wastes, municipal wastes, and other waste materials • Abundance and Price
Advantages of Biomass Gasification • Biomass Energy Conversion via Gasification • Intermediate Synthesis Gas Production • Cleansing & Subsequent Processing • Controlled Air Gasification Eliminates • Fuel Slagging • Conversion of Silica in the Fuel to Crystalline Form • Heavy Particulate Loading in the Synthesis Gas • Lower Temperature Operation Vaporizes Less Pollutants • Gasification Produces a Synthesis Gas • Gases Can Be Intermediately Cleaned • Gases Can Be Burned in Stages for Proactive Pollution Control • Recognized by the US Department of Energy and Environmental Organizations as Superior Combustion Technology
Advantages of Proven Gasification Technology • Scalability & Energy Output Flexibility • Commercial Operations from Three to over Twenty Tons per Hour • Energy Outputs of Steam, Heat Electricity & Combinations • Experience in the Design of Power Generation • Stuttgart 12.8 MWe Rice Hull Fueled Steam Cycle • Rossano 4.5 MWe Olive Waste Fueled I/C Engine Generation • Commercial Scale Demonstration Facility in Tulsa • Demonstration of Client’s Biomass Feed • Existing Fuels or New Fuels • Third Party Verification of Testing • Proven Fuel Flexibility • Twenty + Biomass Fuels Successfully Demonstrated • Five Different Commercial Fuels
Primenergy’s Major Milestones • Test Facility Commissioned 1996 • Over 20 Different Types of Biomass Tested • Privately Owned and Funded • Part of the Energy Process Technologies, Inc. Group of Companies • Primenergy’s Gas Processing Improvements • S3 - Dry Scrubbing with High Temperature Filters for “Dirty” Feed Materials • PARS™ - Wet Scrubbing and Gas Conditioning for Engine or Turbine Fuels (patented)
Flexibility in Fuel Input and Energy Output Sized Waste Product is fed into a The Resulting Electricity thermally insulated gasifier . The The Gas can be Cooled can Power a Factory or be organic waste reacts at high temperature and Filtered Using the Sold back onto the Grid in an oxygen starved atmosphere to PARS System form a synthetic hydrocarbon gas. The TM reaction takes place without PARS combustion, and produces no harmful emissions. The Cooled gas can be burned cleanly in a generator or gas turbine S3 TM The Resulting Heat Can Be Used to Produce TM The S3 System Steam and Process Heat Allows the gas to be filtered hot and cleanly combusted immediately Or it can be used to turn a turbine to produce electricity
